We'll outlaw your voices, do anything we want
We've nothing to fear from the nation
We'll kick you out your houses if you get too much
If we have to, we'll destroy your generation
We've built up a frontage and we've gained respect
Paul Weller
Standards
1977
You don't know what it is but, there's got to be
more
You'd better find a way out, hey kick down that
door
It's a rat trap and you've been caught.
Bob Geldof
Rat trap
1978
These works explore control, order, and
manipulation.
The social structures and educational systems
that supported my journey are gone. The path I took can no longer be taken by
people like me.
The clash that takes place on the turntables
seeks to provide a space to consider potential and possible connections.
These are the things
These are the things
The things that dreams are made of.
